German retailer MediaMarkt may have just outed the rumored PC version of Red Dead Redemption 2 , a listing for the game has appeared on the company's
Swedish website where the game is available for pre-order.

Prebook now and get: War horse: This stately, gray-colored Ardennes war horse can always be trusted in the heat of battle. With greater courage
and stamina than the average stallion, this is a horse that knows how to keep your head cold.
The Outlaw Survival Kit: Contains a collection of accessories for the tough life on the border, including items to restore health. www.mediamarkt.se...

Well, well, just like that looks like there’s reason for the PC crowd to rejoice. That’s because Red Dead Redemption 2 might just come to PCs
after all. At least, that’s if plans push through as seen in the website for German retailer MediaMarkt. MediaMarkt, which is Europe’s largest
retailer of consumer electronics and just behind Best Buy globally, currently has Red Dead Redemption 2 for PC listed under the Swedish branch of the
site. www.pcinvasion.com...

Of course the listing could just be a mistake or it could be they've accidentally broken an embargo on an impending announcement , obviously I'm
hoping it's the latter.

In favour of the game being real and not just a mistaken listing is the revelation of the previously unknown Rage 2 which was outed by Walmart Canada
earlier this year , that leak brought the official statement forward. Rage 2 Outed by Walmart Canada

They didn't release the first one, and there is good reason not to. I've purchased consoles in the past simply to play games not available on PC,
only to sell the console once done with said game. Knights of the Old Republic, for one.

That being said, I'm a PC gamer through and through, and would LOVE this title to make it to PC. Hope this was a spoiler!

More hints at the existence of a PC version this time from Red Dead companion app , investigators have been rummaging around in the companion app
files and found some interesting things.

Some of these parameters are fairly obvious, like references to Oculus (PARAM_Oculus), PC connectivity (PARAM_companionAutoConnectIpPC), and even
a roundabout nod to a PC version (CommandIsPcVersion(void) 000000000166A12C﻿﻿﻿).

However, there's also a line referencing a PC version of the companion app (SIGNIN_PC_APP_URL 0000000002A51F58), which could suggest the other
parameters are tied to a PC version of the app rather than the game. That being said, the graphics settings referenced in the files - framerate, ultra
shadows, water reflection, bokeh, and plenty more - point to something more complicated than a mere app. www.gamesradar.com...

Might we see Rockstar take a similar staggered approach to how they deal with Red Dead Redemption 2?

According to Wedbush Securities analyst Michael Pachter, the answer is yes. Speaking to GamingBolt in an exclusive interview, he said that the PC
launch is likely right around the corner, and that the next generation consoles will get the game when they are out. gamingbolt.com...
